So for the Windows build is there nmake + cmake or cmake only?  I thought I saw some Petri-Dish runs with failed (cmake) Windows builds, but then some others with successful (cmake?) builds.  So is cmake fully functional for Windows now?

It compiles :-)

It doesn't include PortAudio yet, and relies on zlib.dll being built by the nmake process, and doesn't produce an installer.

The libs setup (if you want to do this at home) still runs from nmake as well, and the result of a cmake compile isn't runnable from the build directory without extensive path fiddling (the cmake build produces a setpath.bat that appropriately mangles your path), and the pe flags aren't set on the 3rd party DLL's.

Apart from that it's good.

Progress to the desired end state is slow, anyone else who wants to help would be greatly appreciated.
